One of my really good friends is going to be a grunt (infantry) in the Marines, I told him that I would buy him a knife before he left; as a going away present.
I'm thinking about going with the classic and iconic Ka-Bar, (with the hardcase/snap in case) Many marines swear by this thing and I trust it as one of the best knives ever made.
But I've heard a few people preferring more utilitarian knives during service, such as benchmades. I could imagine a 7" blade being a bit excessive for daily use (unless hes stabbing people on the daily)
Any one with knife experience or from the service feel free to give me some advice. Price isn't that big of a deal but I'd like to keep it under 150 if possible
